Tiny’s Denotational Semantics in RPAL • Executable semantic specification of Tiny. • Add a parser, and voilà ... Tiny is implemented ! • Could even write the parser in RPAL ... • Inefficient, but who cares ... • 'error' (and others) should probably be '<error>', so we allow those as variable names in Tiny. • Subject to change: • Alter order of evaluation of operands. • Allow comparison of booleans.
Extending Tiny • First, add more comparison operators, and lots of arithmetic operators (easy). Example: EE[<- E1 E2>] = EE[E1] o (Check Num) o (λ(v1,s1). s1 => EE[E2] => (Check Num) => (λ(v2,s2).(v1 - v2,s2) )
Extending Tiny • Let’s add the '=' comparison operator. Allow for Num and Bool. This allows type mixing ! EE[<= E1 E2>] = EE[E1] o (Check Num) o (λ(v1,s1). s1 => EE[E2] => (Check Num) => (λ(v2,s2).(v1 eq v2,s2) )
Add Conditional Expression Need a new auxiliary function: Econd. ECond: (State → Val xState) → (State → Val xState) → (Val x State) → (Val x State) Econd = λEF1. λEF2. λ(v,s). s => (v → EF1 | EF2) EE[<cond E1 E2 E3>] = EE[E1] o (Check Bool) o (Econd EE[E2] EE[E3])
Add prefix auto-increment operator EE[<++ I>] = | EE[I] o (Check Num) (λ(v,(m,i,o)). v eq → error | (v+1, (Replace m I (v+1)), i, o) ) For postfix (n++), change this to v !
Adding the one-armed ‘if’ to Tiny CC[<if E C>] = EE[E] o (Check Bool) o (Cond CC[C] Dummy) Of course, for most of these, the syntactic domains need to be updated.
Adding a ‘repeat’ statement to Tiny CC[<repeat C E>] = CC[C] o EE[E] o (Check Bool) o (Cond Dummy (CC[<repeat C E>])) or better yet, CC[<repeat C E>] = CC[C] o CC[<while <not E> C>]
Adding a read statement to Tiny CC[<read I>] = | λ(m,i,o). Null i → error | (Replace m I (Head i), Tail i, o) Would need to remove the ‘read’ expression.
Adding the Pascal ‘for’ loop to Tiny CC[<for I F L C>] = EE[L] o (Check Num) o (λ(l,s). S => EE[F] => (Check Num) => (λ(f,(m,i,o)). (Replace m I f, i, o) => CC[<while < ≤ I l> <; C <:= I <+ I 1>>> ] ) ) o (λ(m,i,o). (Replace m I ,i, o)) Yuck. Can’t enforce lots of rules.
Adding the C ‘for’ loop to Tiny CC[<for F E I C>] = CC[F] o CC[<while E <; C I>>] or CC[<; F <while E <; C I>>] Remarkably simple, eh ? Of course, Tiny has no continue statement to get in the way. We assume default values have been added for any missing parts, e.g. true for E.
Adding a ‘case’ statement to Tiny CC[<case E CC1 ... CCn >] = EE[E] o (Check Num) o C_CC[CC1] ... C_CC[CCn] o (λ(v,s).s) Need a new syntactic domain, for case-clauses: C_C = <c_c n C> Also, a new semantic function to process them: C_CC: C_C → (Val x State) → (Val x State)
Adding a ‘case’ statement to Tiny To process one case clause: C_CC[<c_c n C>] = λ(v,s). v eq → (v,s) | v ne n → (v,s) | ( , s => CC[C]) Aborts all subsequent case clauses. To process them all, change this to v !
Remarks on Denotational Semantics • Exercise: implement these in RPAL ! (see ‘medium’ on website) • Can this be done for “real” programming languages ? Yes, but ... • We now have three formalisms for specifying the semantics of programming languages: • Operational (RPAL) • Attribute grammars (Tiny) • Denotational (Tiny)
Remarks on Semantic Specifications • Remember, parsing was *easy* • Reason: one formalism (CFG’s) good for everyone: • Language user. • Language implementer. • Language designer. • Not so in the world of semantics.
